First Love - Marc

 FIRST LOVE

 

Suddenly thrust

unexpectedly

To where time does not exist

basking in feelings 

Long forgotten

I find myself invincible

Untouched by seasons gone by

 

And then you are here

a gasp leaves my throat

Or is it a sob

for what was lost

Pulled away; no not yet

I did not warn you

Of your tragedy to come

diminishing you forever

 

Left with memories

like ashes

Falling through my fingers

only the memory

Of that summer

when you gently

Helped a boy become a man
